Custom Wire Tree Sculptures
& Acrylic Paintings

The Tree of Life symbolizes the connection to all things.  The tree has roots that reach deeply into the soil, acknowledging its connection to, and accepting nourishment from, Mother Earth. Leaves and branches extend into the sky acknowledging Father Sun and accepting the energy that transforms into nourishment.

The Tree of Life means you are not an island, but rather connected to the world around you and dependent on it for your ability to thrive.

Each Tree is unique and one-of-a- kind. They are individually crafted and hand made locally by John Bowling

Artist Bio

Tree of Life sculptures and original paintings by John Bowling — Handcrafted in Bellevue, Nebraska. Each wire tree is formed from copper and aluminum, shaped by hand to capture natural movement and balance.

Many pieces are finished with semi-precious & natural stones, honoring John’s roots in rock and mineral art to add color, texture, and grounding detail.

Collections range from intimate tabletop pieces to larger wall-mounted and free-standing works. Original acrylic and mixed-media paintings complement the sculptures, sharing themes of organic growth, landscape, and mineral-inspired color.

Whether you seek a thoughtful gift, a focal piece for your home, or a unique accent for an outdoor space, every work is made with durable materials and careful craftsmanship.

Custom commissions are also welcome for those wanting a one-of-a-kind expression of the Tree of Life.
